Video inspection

SciTech has announced the release of a video inspection system with metrology software from PAX-it. Users can turn the PAXcam microscope digital camera into a powerful video inspection system, by using PAXcam and the PAX-it live measurement module and quickly and repeatedly collecting and recording dimensional measurements. PAXcam with live measurement is a comprehensive non-destructive visual inspection solution.

The PAXcam system can be configured to create user-defined measurement templates. Users can pick which template to overlay on the live image, or simply draw the desired measurements on the live preview image. Without spending time to capture and save an image, an operator can adjust the measurement lines and tools on the live image as needed. Measurement templates can be created, saved and recalled for later use. All of the measurement data can be then saved to a single spreadsheet report, allowing the user to watch for trends in the measurements. By using the measurement tolerance indicator, PAX-it also alerts the user as to whether or not the part being measured falls within user-defined tolerance ranges.

Live measurements include point-to-point linear measurements, angle measurements, arc/ellipse/circle measurements including definition of centre point, chord lengths, sweep angles, radii and more. It also includes areas of rectangles, ellipses and irregular shapes drawn on the live image. This is a suitable system for applications such as metrology, quality control, process inspection and product inspection.
